Taste of Nova Scotia

Come to the place in Sydney! Chef Ardon Mofford and his friendly staff welcome you to Governors Pub & Eatery. A superb Cape Breton seafood restaurant renowned for its fresh-from-the-ocean seafood, homegrown ingredients and a delicious made-from-fresh menu.  Known for great music, Governors plays host to Atlantic Canada’s most talented traditional and indie bands on the club circuit today. You’ll find a warm and relaxing atmosphere in either the traditional comfort of our lively Celtic pub upstairs or the ambience of the casual fine dining restaurant located on the first floor, with two outdoor patios overlooking the water. Experience the one place you’ll remember for years to come!

Delicious meals! Traditional Maritime fare! 

 ”Casual dining with a Professional Touch” and a breathtaking view of the spectacular Bras d’Or Lakes make McCurdy’s one of Baddeck’s finest dining experiences. Sample our Maritime menu with fresh and local nightly features such as Aspy Bay Mussels, Lime Scented Pecan Crusted Fresh Halibut, or a Chunky Cape Breton Lobster Roll. Open for breakfast and evening dining. Ask about our picnic lunch for busy travellers on the go. 

The Keltic Lodge’s three dining options offer guests an array of experiences, from intimate chef-inspired cuisine to foot-stomping entertainment mixed with casual creations motivated by our region. This world-renowned location offers views from every venue, from our casual Atlantic Restaurant, which offers fun family dining, to a Keltic pub-like experience. For those interested in innovative food and multi-award winning dishes, the Keltic is the place to be, specializing in coastal Cape Breton cuisine.

The food philosophy is all about fresh, seasonal produce. Our chefs create food for the soul, skilfully prepared to accentuate the natural flavours. We celebrate the bounty of the sea and land in a setting that cannot be found anywhere. At the Keltic Lodge we encourage our guests to live well and enjoy!

WE ARE DIFFERENT! The Bell Buoy is always striving to provide you with the best “body friendly” foods. Our salmon is guaranteed chemical free and kosher. Our fresh chicken has no additives. Our jumbo shrimp are wild caught, not farm raised. All other seafood comes to us directly from the ice cold waters of the Atlantic Ocean. You can also enjoy lobster, hand-cut  steaks, pastas, an excellent wine list and friendly service while overlooking the beautiful Bras d’Or lakes. We are “nut free” and sensitive to special dietary needs with gluten-free meals and desserts. We make all of our own bread, sauces, soups, desserts and even our own ice cream!
